Are you craving crunchy freshness right about now? When meltingly tender slow-cooked stews and soups predominate. They are welcome, but sometimes you want some bite-y food.

And make that simple, quick, healthy, and low cal too, please.

I like this lightly dressed and fat free. But you can easily add oil if you want to increase the calories.

Mix it in a minute, then stash it in the fridge. Some say it is better made ahead, and it does change over time. The dressing magically multiplies, the cranberries swell and soften. Everything turns a pretty pale pink.

We like it all ways, in any stage of the lifecycle. Right away, the next day, and a few days later. It’s all fresh, all crunchy.

Hi Linda,
This looks lovely…and I really agree with you about the celery seed. I love celery seeds, they add so much flavor to cole slaw, and potato salad, and soups! I look frward to making this nice salad. Thank you for sharing it. Sincerely, Chris
